Song of Solomon 7:11-13
Contemporary English Version
11 Let's stroll through the fields
and sleep in the villages.
12 At dawn let's slip out and see
if grapevines and fruit trees
are covered with blossoms.
When we are there,
I will give you my love.
13 Perfume from the magic flower[a]
fills the air, my darling.
Right at our doorstep
I have stored up for you
all kinds of tasty fruits.
